Star TriFold Birthday Card

I talked to my cousin Bev yesterday and she received this card, so it's safe to post! I made it for her birthday, which was December 29th. HAPPY BIRTHDAY BEV!

This past year, a friend and very talented paper craft person, Valerie, gave a class at Photo Memories, a scrapbooking store here in Halifax on how to make this gorgeous Star Tri-Fold card. If you are in the Halifax area, there might be kits available at The Cutting Garden and there is a good video on YouTube HERE

Here are some more photos:

The area beside the fairy, is where I wrote the greeting.

I made a pocket and inserted 3 old photos of Bev and I growing up. I matted each photo and added photo corners. This photo is a bit blurry, but it's my favourite photo of Bev & I. I'm the one with hardly any hair!

Wow, Debbie, that is stunning! I love the lace on all the panels and then the inside is just plain gorgeous. That pocket with the photos is brilliant! She must have been so thrilled to receive this piece of art!

It's All About Me

Obsessed with all things inky, stamped, distressed, waxed, vintage, shabby, grungy, steampunked (?) and just plain funky! iLove my iPad, my iPhone, my iMac, and chocolate. I'm a Trekkie and a Whovian. I have a rubber stamp fetish and I want to be a Picker when I grow up!
